Your support makes all the difference.It was a nervy affair, but Tottenham just about got the job done against Newcastle and will play Champions League football in 2018-19. Harry Kane still didn’t look at his sharpest, but his goal will be pleasing for England and Spurs fans alike.
Leicester City defeated ten-man Arsenal on Wednesday night, a victory that could keep Claude Puel in his job. Puel will again finish in the top ten, and could finish eighth for the second consecutive season with a Leicester win and Everton loss or draw. But Southampton sacked Puel last year, and it is not out of the question that the same could happen after this game.
It may prove a typically drab end-of-season encounter where both sides have nothing to play for, but there are plenty of presumed England squad members who could be on show at Wembley hoping to find some form ahead of the World Cup.

Where can I watch it?
Highlights from the game can be seen on Match of the Day from 10.30pm on Sunday.
It’s a big game for…
Moussa Sissoko hasn’t set the world alight since his move to Spurs. With Tottenham supposedly short of funds for the summer, Sissoko is a player who Daniel Levy could look to sell but Mauricio Pochettino appears to trust the Frenchman.
Best Stat
6 – Harry Kane has struck the woodwork more times than anyone else this season. He is level with Mo Salah when goals and woodwork hits are combined – they each have 34.
Remember when…
Tottenham and Leicester played out an entertaining 4-4 draw at White Hart Lane in February 2004.
Player to watch…
Another goal against Arsenal for Jamie Vardy in midweek. His pace can worry a Spurs defence that looked a little vulnerable against Newcastle, despite keeping a clean sheet.

Despite the fact that their side still has a chance at survival, albeit an extremely small one, some Swansea fans are voicing their concerns with the club's board and owners:
In terms of player departures probably the saddest goodbye to say today is to Michael Carrick, who will play his 481st and final Premier League game. Jose Mourinho says the midfielder will captain Manchester United in his 464th appearance for the club. Carrick will join the coaching staff at Old Trafford for next season.
Leon Britton and Angel Rangel leave Swansea after today, and it looks like a rather mournful end for two great servants. Britton played for the club in each of the four divisions, spending only a few months at Sheffield United in 2010-11 in an otherwise uninterrupted 16-season stint with the Welsh club.
